Aloo Chaat

Robby Grewal's Aloo Chaat is completely a comedy film. The film makes the viewers laugh at times. This film has a simple story told in a very simple way. The story of the film is interesting. The execution of the film brings back the memories of old film Dulhan Wahi Jo Piya Mann Bhaye.




Aloo Chaat



USA returned Nikhil (Aftab Shivdasani) belongs to an orthodox Punjabi family and falls in love with a Muslim girl Aamna (Aamna Shariff) while studying in the US. Nikhil feels hesitant to disclose about his love affair as he knows that his orthodox father Puroshottum (Kulbhushan Kharbanda) will never allow him to marry a girl of another religion.

Desperate to seek a solution, he takes help of his father's best friend Hakim (Manoj Pahwa). Together they plot to bring Nikhil's girlfriend (Aamna Sharif) into the family.

Director Robby Grewal deserves a huge applause for his treatment of the subject and his narrative structure. His choice of actors is bang on with each actor right from Aftab to even the Aloo Chaat seller fitting the bill perfectly.


Aftab and Aamna




Acting wise, Aftab has come back after a long gap. His acting is praiseworthy. Acting wise Aamna has a long way to go. Kulbhushan Kharbanda is excellent . Rest of the cast is appriciable. Aloo Chaat the film, is rich in masala. A real tangy chutney treat that you don’t want to miss. It is worth a watch movie.
